Limited High School Bussing and Delays
Busses will be running late today, Friday, April 26, due to a bus driver staffing shortage.

We will only be providing high school transportation for the following:
  • Career Center shuttles
  • Bus 33, 28, 12, and 5 at Summit

  • We will not be running COTC shuttles.
Parents will be notified with specific time delays as soon as possible.

We apologize for the inconvenience this causes and appreciate your understanding.

For Parents

Parent Resources
Families are the most important advocates for school children. Reynoldsburg schools recognize that parenting may be done by moms, dads, grandparents, aunts, uncles and guardians. We welcome and encourage your involvement in your child's education. We are partners in preparing your child for college, career and life as an active citizen in our community.

 
We have compiled a few tips and resources for you to use at home. Please also visit our schools, participate in school activities and contact your child's teachers or principal when you have questions or concerns — or just want to talk about your child's learning. Thank you for trusting Reynoldsburg City Schools with your child's education.

Top 10 Parent Tips to Support Student Success
  1. Set aside a time each week to check your student’s grades and to check for missing assignments that can still be completed, or assessments that can be reworked. If parents don’t have Power School or Echo access, they can contact the school's secretary. Students who have devices at home can also pull up their online gradebook to share with parents.
  2. Students who have a device at home can access extra practice through the Clever Portal. Students know their log in and know which programs are extra practice.
  3. Set aside time each day to check in with your student about the day’s assignments and activities completed at school. Students with devices at home can show completion of assignments in Google Classroom or Echo.
  4. Check in every so often with your student’s teachers to get feedback on your student’s progress. Access our staff directory for the teacher's email address.
  5. Encourage reading at home! Students who read 20 minutes everyday are exposed to upwards of 1.8 million words per year. Each student has access to books from school and classroom libraries.
  6. If your student’s school uses Class Dojo, check it frequently to monitor student behavior and activities that are occurring in the classroom.  
  7. Your school may have a PTO. Reach out to your student’s teacher or principal to find out how you can be involved!
  8. Want to see a particular type of after school club or program? Don’t hesitate to talk to your building principal and share your ideas.  
  9. Stay current with your school's social media platforms.  
  10. Attend after school events and family nights to help build a greater school community.

PAPER tutors have been specially trained to conduct expert, academic support in a secure, chat-based platform. With a commitment to helping students learn, they’ll never give students answers, but rather interact with them in an encouraging tone to lead them forward. 


This is a free service that we’re providing, so students are encouraged to use it as much as they need, whenever they need. Our teachers also have accounts and will be able to review all student activity to see what they’re working on and provide more targeted instruction as needed.
